    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) may be configured to use intra-message antenna selection diversity (ASD). The UE may transmit a first portion of a scheduled message within a time interval using a first antenna element of the UE based on an intra-message antenna diversity configuration. The intra-message antenna diversity configuration may indicate a set of antennas available for transmission of the scheduled message. In some cases, the UE may transmit, within the same time interval, at least a portion of the scheduled message using at least a second antenna element of the UE that is different from the first antenna element. In some cases, a receiving UE may decode the first portion and the second portion of the scheduled message based on the intra-message antenna diversity configuration.

  • Publication number: 20230403066
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may report an initial capability to maintain latency conditions and a number of supported beams (e.g., a threshold number of beams the UE can support for relaying downlink communications such as synchronization signal blocks (SSBs)). A network entity may then transmit multiple SSBs directly to the repeater (e.g., on the same beam). The repeater may relay the SSBs across multiple beams to provide service to a coverage area. After relaying signaling between served UEs and the network entity, the repeater may transmit a report requesting a specific (e.g., improved or more accurate) number of beams (e.g., more beams or fewer beams than the number of SSBs initially provided). Upon receiving an updated configuration of a number of beams, the repeater may receive more SSBs on a single beam, and relay SSBs on the updated number of beams.
